Lists basic steps for equipment storage and specific steps for storing equipment engines. Discusses methods for preparing equipment for use during the winter, including applying a beeswax-based preservative to cylinder rods to prevent corrosion, covering hydraulic couplings with a dust cover, and inspecting tire chains that could be used for traction on snow.
